Gandavum Dry Blond Belgian Ale 7.5% ABV
It’s only fitting that with Ghent as our adopted Belgian hometown, we have a beer of that city in our portfolio. The town’s most well situated bar alongside the canal and celebrated publican is Pol of Waterhuis aan de Bierkant Café. The bar’s custom brewed dry hopped beer is called Gandavum (the Roman name for Ghent). Pol is equally famous for his genever pub, the Dreupelkot, so it is no surprise that Gandavum is an extraordinarily dry and herbal blond beer. Gandavum is unfiltered, made with all pilsner and Munich malt, hopped with Tomahawk and Willamette, and dry- hopped. 91 on Ratebeer. Be the first to taste this delicious special dry hopped beer from our favorite bar in our favorite town in our favorite beer country.
